> you have to manually copy over any credentials from Bitwarden to Keepass pass-import works pretty well; create an initial empty KeePass DBX file first and keep a copy to re-use, then one can re-run pass-import to import BW to a fresh KDBX on a recurring basis with a simple script.

In Bitwarden: Generate a Username

ossusermivami·Dec 16, 2021

there is a pass import pluging allowing you to import bitwardn csv https://github.com/roddhjav/pass-import maybe you can "bridge it" with bitwarden-cli via some export/import commands or may as well use bitwarden-cli directly (but i find the pass ui much bettwer than bw cli command)

In Clever uses of pass, the Unix password manager

There are plugins for importing into pass from all kinds of password managers. (https://github.com/roddhjav/pass-import#readme) You could setup a cron job that polls 1Pass for your password CSV, imports the CSV into to pass, and commits the diff. Caveat that I don’t know how robust 1Password’s API is, or indeed if they have one. You might need to do the “gimme all my passwords in a CSV” step through a GUI, or a very hacky puppeteer script.
